Osher Lifelong Learning Institute – Summer 2025 Catalog
I’m delighted to share I’m doing an online talk and an in-person walk focused on my book, Walking as Artistic Practice, as a part of OLLI (Osher Lifelong Learning Institute via the College of Continuing & Professional Studies at UMN). OLLI’s vibrant learning community for people aged 50+ is host to hundreds of high-quality noncredit courses each year—offered both in person and online—as well as intellectually stimulating social, cultural, and volunteer opportunities.
Know someone 50+ that might be interested? Not an OLLI member? On the fence about joining for a full year ($325 annually)? Our summer-only membership makes it oh-so-easy to give us a try. You’ll receive access to 57 courses and tours during the summer term (June 2–27). The cost? Only $49!
This talk will share foundational information about the history of walking as an artistic practice, making it accessible to participants of all backgrounds. We will review a variety of topics from observational and sensory experience, leading versus following, rituals, place, and more.
Online talk: Friday, June 20, 12:30-2:00pm, online (there’s already 46 people registered! 500 total spots available)
In-person walk: Saturday, June 28, 12:30-2pm, meeting at the intersection of Minnehaha Creek and Dupont Ave S, Minneapolis
